Maybe if even half of those so enraged by a drag ban got enraged about a lack of services for LGBTQ youth, maybe we'd find ourselves in a world where we don't just say "It Gets Better". We make it better.

What is it about making love with another person that can dispel preconception? Is it the vulnerability of being naked that provides a conduit for communion with another? The finding out that a body so different responds so much as one's own? Or just the sensation of touch?

There are some habits that are really hard to break! For my BFF and me our summer vacation to Maine is one of them, and it is that time of year once again. When we think of Maine, we think of bikes and beaches, lighthouses and lobsters.

The Florida LGBTA Democratic Caucus applauds and celebrates the decision by the Boy Scouts of America National Executive Board to end the blanket ban on LGBT adult leadership.

The 45-12 vote confirms the unanimous vote by the BSA National Executive Committee two weeks ago to allow local Scout units to select adult leaders without regard to sexual orientation. Two years ago, the BSA voted to remove the ban on openly gay scouts.

Some religious organizations that sponsor troops have expressed negative reactions and the BSA has pledged to defend the right of any religious-sponsored united to continue to excluding LGBT adults. The Caucus joins with our partners the Human Rights Campaign in calling for the Boy Scouts of America to show leadership and establish a full national policy of inclusion to ensure that LGBT parents of current and future Boy Scouts can fully participate in their sons’ lives regardless of what entity sponsors their troop.

We hold our meetings on the second Wednesday of every month at the Pride Center at Equality Park, 2040A North Dixie Highway in Wilton Manors, Florida. We provide free pizza, soda and water beginning at 7:00 p.m., and our meeting starts at 7:30 p.m.
